1 Hlaem pakhat vaengah puencawn rhoi loh Sodoma pha rhoi. Te vaengah Lotte Sodom vongka ah ngol. Lotloh a hmuh vaengah amih rhoi doe ham thoo tih a mikhmai neh lai la bakop thuk.
AND there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;
2 Te phoeiah, “Ka boei aw, na sal im la ha phael mai dae ne. Rhaeh lamtah na kho sil rhoi dae. Na thoo vetih na longpuei ahna cet dam bitni,” a ti nah. Tedae, “Pawh, toltung ah ka rhaeh rhoi bitni,” a ti rhoi.
And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant’s house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
3 Tedae amih rhoi te tlala hloep dongah anih taengla hoii uh tih a im ah kun uh. Amih rhoi ham buhkoknaha saii vaengah vaidamding te a kaeng pah tiha caak uh.
And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.
4 Tedaea yalh uh hlanah khopuei hlang Sodomrhoek ca neh camoe patong la pilnam boeihloh a dik a noi duela ima vael uh.
But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
5 Te phoeiah Lot tea khue uh tih, “Khoyinah nang taengla aka lo hlang rhoi te ta? Amih rhoi te ka ming uh van ham kaimih taengla han khuen,” a ti na uh.
And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
6 Tedae Lotte thohka la cet tih a hnukkah thohkhaih te a khaih.
And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,
7 Te phoeiah, “Ka manucarhoek thaehuet uh boel mai.
And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
8 Ka taengah canu panit om pueng he, te rhoi loh tongpaa ming rhoi moenih. Amih rhoi te nangmih taengla kang khuen pawn eh. Te vaengah amih rhoi te na mik loh then a ti bangla saii uh. Tedae hekah hlang rhoi taengah tah hno saii uh boeh. Ka tungpum hlipkhup la ha kun dongah he,” a ti nah.
Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.
9 Tedae, “Thoeih lah,” a ti uh. Te phoeiah, “Bakuep hamla hlang pakhatte halo tih lai a tloek tarha aya? Amih rhoi lakah namah te kan talh uh ve ne,” a ti uh. Te vaengah hlang te khaw, Lot te khaw khaka aep uh tih thohkhaih te boh ham thoeih uh.
And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.
10 Te vaengah im khuikah hlang rhoi loh kuta yueng uh tih Lot te amih taeng lamkah im khuilaa doek rhoi phoeiah thohkhaih te tlup a khaih rhoi.
But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.
11 Te vaengah im thohka kah hlangrhoek te tanoe kangham due mikdael neha ngawn tih thohka hmuh ham khaw khobing uh.
And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.
12 Te phoeiah hlang rhoi loh Lot taengah, “Nang taengah ulae aka om pueng? Na cava nehna capa rhoek khaw, na canurhoek neh khopuei khuikah namah hut boeih te he hmuen lamkah khuen laeh.
And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place:
13 BOEIPA mikhmuh ah amih kah pangngawlnah loh rhoeng coeng tih hekah hmuen he phae ham BOEIPA loh kaimih n'tueih dongah khopuei he ka phae rhoi pawn ni,” a ti rhoi.
For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the Lord; and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it.
14 Te dongah Lotte cet tih a canu rhoek kah a loh a cavarhoek taengaha thui pah vaengah, “Khopuei he BOEIPAloh a phae dongah hekah hmuen lamkah thoo uh lamtah cet uh laeh,” a ti nah. Tedae a cava rhoek kah mikhmuh ah nueihbu banglaa om pah.
And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the Lord will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law.
15 Tedae mincanga pha vaengah puencawn rhoi loh Lot tea tanolh rhoi tih, “Thoo lamtah na yuu khaw, na canu aka om rhoi he khuen laeh. Khopuei kathaesainah dongahna khoengvoep ve,” a ti nah.
And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.
16 Te vaengah uelh tih hlang rhoek te amah kut, a yuu kut neh a canu rhoi kah kut khaw a hlaengtang uh. BOEIPA kah thinphatnah he anih soahaom dongah anih te a khuen tih khopuei vongvoel ah duem uh.
And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the Lord being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.
17 Amihte poeng laa khuen neh amih taengah, “Na hinglu te yong puei laeh. Na hnuk paelki boeh. Vannaem takuem ah pai boeh, tlang la yong laeh, na khoengvoep ve,” a ti nah.
And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.
18 Tedae Lot loh amih rhoi taengah, “Pawh ka Boeipa bet ca mah.
And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord:
19 Na sal he na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen ka dang tih na sitlohnah te na rhoengsak dongah ka hinglu hing sak ham kai taengah nan saii coeng. Tedae kai he tlang daengla yong ham tah ka coeng oeh pawh. Yoethae loh kai m'puei vetih ka duek ve.
Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die:
20 Tahaeah ke kah khopuei la rhaelrham ham yoei ta ke. Te dongah anih ke yiit cakhaw pahoi ka yong mai eh. Anihte ka hinglu aka hing sak ham yiit pawt maco?,” a ti nah.
Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.
21 Te dongah anih te, “Hekah olka ham khaw na mikhmuhah kan paek vetih na thui khopuei te ka palet mahpawh.
And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken.
22 A loe la yong pahoi laeh, ke la na pawk hil pakhat khaw saii ham ka coeng thai moenih,” a ti nah. Te dongah khopuei ming khaw Zoar a sui.
Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
23 Lot loh Zoara pha vaengah khomik loh khohmuen ah thoeng coeng.
The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
24 Te vaengah BOEIPA loh BOEIPA taengkah kat hmaite Sodom neh Gomorrah ah vaan lamkaha tlan sak.
Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven;
25 Te dongah tekah khopueirhoek neh vannaem boeih khaw, khopuei kah khosa kho boeih neh diklai toian khaw a palet.
And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
26 Tedae Lot yuu loh a hnuka paelki dongah lungkaeh tung la poeh.
But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
27 Abraham tah mincang ah BOEIPA mikhmuh kah a pai nah hmuen la pahoi hlah uh.
And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the Lord:
28 Sodom neh Gomorrah ben kah, vannaem khohmuen phai boeih tea dan thuk vaengah hmailing hmaikhu bangla diklai hmaikhua thoengte lawta hmuh.
And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.
29 Tedae Pathen loh vannaem kah khopueia phae vaengah Pathen loh Abraham tea poek. Te dongah Lot tea paletnah khui lamloha khuen. Te phoeiah Lot loh kho a sak nah khopuei tea palet.
And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.
30 Te dongah Lot te Zoar lamkah nong tih tlang ah kho a sak. Te vaengah a canu panit te khaw amah taengah om. Zoar ah khosak ham a rhih dongah a canu rhoi khaw lungko khuiah om uh.
And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.
31 Te vaengaha caming loh canoi la, “A pa he patong coeng tih diklai pum kah khosing la mamih rhoi taengah aka kun ham hlang khaw diklai ah om voelpawh.
And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:
32 Halo, a pa ke misurtui tul sih lamtah a taengah yalh sih. Te phoeiah a pa neh tiingan hing sak sih,” a ti nah.
Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
33 Te dongah a napa te amah tekah khoyin ah misurtuia tul rhoi. Te vaengaha caming kun tih a napa taengah yalh dae me vaengah yalh tih me vaengaha thoh khaw ming pawh.
And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
34 Tekaha vuen ah khaw caming loh canoi taengah, “Hlaemyinah a pa taengla ka yalh coeng. Tihnin hlaemah misurtui tul bal sih. Paan lamtah a taengah yalh van. A pa neh tiingan khaw hing sak sih,” a ti nah.
And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
35 Amah tekah hlaem ah khaw a napa te misurtui koepa tul rhoi tih canoiloh a kun thil. A taengah yalh dae me vaengah yalh tih me vaengah a thoh khaw ming pawh.
And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
36 Te dongah Lot canu rhoite a napa loha vawn sak.
Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.
37 Te phoeiah caming loh capaa cun tih a mingte Moaba sui dongah tihnin due Moab rhoek kah a napa la om.
And the firstborn bare a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
38 Canoi long khaw capaa cun van tih a mingte Benammia sui dongah tihnin due Ammon ca rhoek kah a napa la om.
And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his name Ben-ammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.
